(2002-09-26) — Chaos erupted at the Cobb County (Ga.) School Board meeting Thursday night when a seeing-eye dog demanded the microphone and began to give an impassioned speech in support of the Darwinian theory of evolution.
The board, which ultimately voted to allow teachers to teach various theories of origins, had the dog ejected from the meeting.
“It’s nothing personal,” said one board member. “The public comment time was over. He had his chance.”
The seeing-eye dog, named Schmoo, said, “Ever since I evolved the ability to speak — through a random mutation — I’ve been wanting to give this school board a piece of my mind. And now they cut me off. If I could walk erect, I would have punched that board president in the nose…Well, maybe someday.”
